I should like to clarify that part of Professor Cavazza’s report which deals with the activities of the Agronomy Institute in the University of Palermo. This Institute, under my direction, has interested itself — among other subjects — in the utilization, for irrigation purposes, of the waters of the River Salso which crosses Sicily from North to South. The water from this river becomes saline because of the hydric contribution of affluents originating from zones which belong, from the geological point of view, to gypsum-sulphuric formations also rich in rock-salt deposits.
